Revealing the sources of Sydney’s air pollution

Chasing ghosts at the Australian Centre for Neutron Scattering

Neutron and gamma ghost imaging are important scientific developments reported in two publications, and the subject of an Australian Research Council Discovery Project grant awarded to a team that includes ANSTO scientists

Synchrotron X-rays reveal pathway to greener fertiliser production

In a new study published in Nature Communications, researchers from UNSW have demonstrated a more sustainable alternative: an electrochemical pathway that couples carbon dioxide and nitrogen-containing species to produce urea under mild conditions.

Part 2: What does a radiation event cost the aviation industry?

The cost of building radiation-hardness testing into the design and qualification of electronics is typically well under one per cent of a major project’s budget.

First light achieved for new micro-computed tomography beamline under Project BRIGHT

Project Bright, the construction of eight new beamlines at ANSTO’s Australian Synchrotron has reached a milestone by achieving ‘First Light’ for the new micro-computed tomography (MCT) beamline in late NovembeR.

Research highlights importance of traditional fire burning practices to ensure survival of tree with Indigenous cultural and ecological significance

Radiocarbon dating at ANSTO’s Centre for Accelerator Science provided strong evidence that some culturally significant trees on Minjerribah (North Stradbroke Island) have persisted for up to more than 500 years
